Question on Equipment:

For men less than 5'7" do you recommend playing with shorter clubs especially woods since they are so long? How can I gain control, but not lose distance?

There are so many things that can be done to golf clubs to make them fit you properly.

You may be able to play a shorter shaft, but one that is timed better for your swing and actually gives you more distance because you are able to strike the sweet spot. You may also benefit from a newer, better head.

After spending years working alongside a skilled club fitter, I realized the depth of options that are out there. Any Joe Shmoe golf pro, myself included, can fit you for the basics, but it sounds like you need to go to a very skilled specialist with a launch monitor.
